Loving Our Communities to Christ

About LCPN

The Las Cruces Prayer Network (LCPN) was envisioned by Fred Schultz, Executive Director. In 2002, monthly city-wide prayer gatherings of the local corporate Body of Christ met to pray for the church, government, education, families, business, media/arts, and the Southwest region. Prophetically, the Holy Spirit has orchestrated through faithful "prayer warriors" an unprecedented prayer movement in this city.

By 2004, the Las Cruces Prayer Center opened to the local community as a place of prayer, prayer training, and as a resource center. In May of 2007 the Las Cruces Prayer Network moved to a new location 1115 Commerce Dr. Suite #3. Our phone numbers, website and email are all the same. Our new location will better serve the mission and vision the Lord has given us.

Friday, September 28, 2007, the visionary for LCPN, Fred Schultz passed away. A celebration service was held on October 4, 2007. LCPN will not be able to replace the passionate leadership that Fred felt for our community. Fred was a great blessing and friend to us. Our faithful, dedicated brother and ministry partner will be missed. The Board of Directors is currently seeking an Executive Director to continue the ministry of prayer.
